Well, now that we know the AUE guys are buying the scooters from you, we 
now know that is why you like them. They will not get on hear and tell 
everyone if they are having any problems with them, the code of silence 
thing again.

Cobb. did you notice he has not answered the Mike Pizzo thing, we know that 
Mike dives with the AUE group and unless they can prove it is not the same 
Mike Pizzo involved with this

Well, now that we know the AUE guys are buying the scooters from you, we
now know that is why you like them. They will not get on hear and tell
everyone if they are having any problems with them, the code of silence
thing again.<br>
<br>
Cobb. did you notice he has not answered the Mike Pizzo thing, we know
that Mike dives with the AUE group and unless they can prove it is not
the same Mike Pizzo involved with this <br>

<blockquote type=cite cite>Jim, I told you all they were prototype and to
work with me on any issues. JT is incapable of doing that due to his
false pride. I don't care how many screwups he has had, I am not
"hammering" him over anything but his unwillingness to learn
and his unwillingness to ask. I am hammering him over doing the same
things over and over. He just keeps telling me I  don't know and
that he does know, and that is clearly a function of his having no clue
what he is talking about and no willingness to listen to those who know a
hell of a lot more than he does. Andrew G told me exactly the same thing
about his efforts with JT. He is a waste of time. <br>
<br>
You got the first one of those scooters I ever made. You were supposed to
stay in touch with me to work out any issues .You will recall that I used
two different winds of experimental motors on your scooters. So far I
have only heard from one of  you about anything , and nothing from
that idiot JT other than his slop on the lists.<br>
<br>
Barnette and the others who have them, on the other hand, keep me updated
on the conditions of the scooters. There are now several of the wreck
scooters in existence, and several hundred of the cave scooters. The
military has several, police forces have them, most organized ( non
stroke) dive teams have them, and the two record holding distance dive
teams have them. Once the motor and other issues are certain, you can
install which ever clutch you want and locktite if you want, but the
thing will not come unscrewed unless the clutch is pushed back from the
shear pin or the screw is stripped , which will happen if it is removed
and replaced more than one time. Sure, it would be nice if them made them
with a reverse thread, but they do not, so other solutions must be
used.<br>
<br>
All any of you have to do is ask, but that is just too much for a moron
like JT and the rest of you are listening to that clown. He never had a
real scooter before, what the hell makes you think he has any clue what
is what with this one?<br>
<br>
Personally, I do not locktite mine, I use the minimum number of washers
so it will slip if I put my pinkie in the blades, and that does not put
enough pressure on the screw to unwind it. If you guys need something
different,  you need to talk to me about it, or you will not get a
solution from the person who knows best.<br>
<br>
And, just so you know, the people who specify that they want what I ride,
which is a Magnum PVC Gavin with expensive batteries and clutch rigged
loose, get just that only it costs more money.Certainly a lot more than
JT was willing to spend. Reinhard and Michael with their team and fleet
of these scooters just yesterday pushed Doux de Coly Cave out to over
18,000 feet. Reinhard has no problem discussing how every little thing we
do is done directly with me, and he has the results to prove it, just as
have the results using the rebreather he built for me.<br>
<br>
You can share information with the best, or you can fight and argue with
the best. I have been making scooters, winding motors, sharing data
,technology and information and receiving data and information from the
best for years. Most of you have a real hard time doing that due to
self-imposed ego restraints ( not you personally, Jim, but your boy and
others like him).<br>
<br>
In any event, the wreck scooters is the best thing for boat diving and
the other is the best for cave diving, and I can recommend what is needed
for each type of condition and do it for the least amount of money. You
do not need what I ride to do what you guys go, and in fact I use what
you use when I do that kind of diving. As anyone, including you yourself
know, I am ALWAYS accessible by phone or email. Wait, I take that back.
Last night when Reinhard called me to tell me he was ok and back safely
from his record dive, I did not hear the phone ring due to being 8 rows
back at Pompano Beach Amphitheatre listening to Dream Theatre and Joe
Satriani, but I did phone him back this morning to hear about his dive

<dd>I don't feel I need to defend JT, he is a big boy and can do that
himself. But I do need to call bullshit when I see it. Yes you guys did
come up and dive with us and I appreciate it. JT appreciated it too, he
opened his house up to both you, JJ on your visit and then to Andrew and
Mike when they came up to teach the fundamentals class.<br>
<br>

<dd>JT has bent over backwards to hear the DIR/GUE side of the story.
Hell, we all went down there to return the favor and see how you guys do
it. Why JT wants to butt heads with you over every little thing, I guess
you have to ask JT, because I don't know. I do know that when I did deep
dives the person I wanted to have on the boat was JT because he sweats
the details, and therein lies the devil, as you well know. You and
several other people on this list are slamming JT for having a few
screwed up dives. The reason you know about these screwed up dives is
that he told you, me and everybody else about what happened. JT broke the
"code of silence" which is apparently alive and well and fully
enforced down there in Florida.<br>
<br>

<dd>And there are so many assholes and idiots out there doing goofy,
dangerous shit:<br>

<dd>Did you know that Mike Pizzio is involved with this clusterfuck
waiting to happen? Where the hell is DIR now? This is the kind of crap
you and Joe need to be hammering, not JT.<br>
<br>

<dd>As far as this pissing match over the scooters, I am dismayed over a
couple of things. For one I feel responsible for all the guys purchasing
your scooter after you sold me that prototype. The guys saw the logic of
getting a scooter for depth as, once you get one, you realize that a
scooter is not a lazy way to get around but a actual piece of life
support equipment. A scooter can save your ass on a deep dive, conserve
your gas and keep you from getting bent.<br>
<br>

<dd>And the fact is that while your scooters have the engineering down
better than anyone else, your QA sucks and everybody had problems with
their scooters other than me. It made me look bad and I don't like that
any more than you do. I have no doubt in my mind that you stick behind
your products 100% up to and including buying them back if the customer
is not satisfied. What would be better, and what everybody wants, is not
to ship the scooter back for a refund, but that the darn things are
de-bugged before shipment. If we are to do the debugging, fine, that
should be stated and it never was.<br>
<br>

<dd>All this clutch bruhaha is not about the clutch at all. It is about a
screw backing out allowing a sacrificial clutch component to fry out.
Hell, one prop assembly fell apart in the water right after the diver
entered the water. This is not encouraging stuff for something we
consider life support equipment. As far as the guys were concerned they
had just bought the scooter that went 18,000 ft and is used by some of
the best divers on earth. I figure that problem would be solved by just
using lock-tight on this critical screw, the fix would be that
simple.<br>
<br>

<dd>Instead this has become a full-blown pissing match between two people
who I like and respect and I hate to see it happen. I truly wish you and
JT would figure out this scooter thing and make the "wrecker
special" as reliable as the "cave special" as I'm sure it
can be. You have some powerful proponents of the DIR system here in
Virginia Beach and it would really be a shame if they were all alienated
over a dumb screw.<br>
<br>

<dd>I know that you have been around a long time, George, and I also know
that you are almost invariably right (much to the consternation of many
on this list). But I think you are wrong about JT. You two may never see
eye to eye but JT is very much into not only himself surviving the dive
but everybody else on the boat, within the realm of reality. Those last 5
words are very important. You can strive to gain true DIR precepts, but
at some point you have to bow to reality or quit diving. It's like taking
a half-step to a wall, you will always get closer and closer but you
won't ever actually get there. At some point you have to deal with your
situation and do the best you can. And JT and others up here are doing
the best they can with what they've got.<br>

<dd>Please tell us about the non commercial, commercial dive that you

who

<dd>re a commercial dive operation. Tell us how you had the required on
<dd>board
<dd>recompression chamber and how it worked like your chase boat. Also
<dd>tell us
<dd>what in water communications were in place and what were the depths
<dd>and the

<dd>Isn't it true that this was his deepest dive ever? Isn't it also
true
<dd>that

email" than he
<dd>would
<dd>be were the reverse to happen. It is internet rhetoric. Nothing
more,
<dd>nothing less. The difference between you and myself is that I see
good
<dd>information and recognize it. You see it and reject it because you
<dd>are mad
<dd>at whomever gives you the advice. I will solve the problem right
now.
<dd>JT,
<dd>PLEASE, PLEASE, DON'T SHOOT YOURSELF IN THE HEAD.<br>
<br>

<dd>Capt. CF, you really need to come down from the tree and put away
the
<dd>banjo.
<dd>People are desperately trying to give you good advice and
information
<dd>and
<dd>you continuously reject it and reliably do the opposite. You are a
<dd>danger
<dd>to all around you. Change your ways. Give up the dope. Get into
<dd>therapy.<br>
<br>

<dd>All of the above said, I seriously question how ANY lucid business
<dd>person
<dd>would allow you to take charge of the lives of their passengers.
<dd>Given all
<dd>of the sound advice you have so ignorantly rejected, were an
incident
<dd>to

<dd>JT, the bottom line is that you are not qualified to comment<br>
<br>

</dl>on
<dl>
<dd>anything
<dd>in
<dd>diving, and you have proven it repeatedly. You are a bad<br>
<br>

</dl>imitation
<dl>
<dd>of
<dd>what
<dd>the rest of us do so easily and a complete stroke by anyone's<br>
<br>

</dl>measure,
<dl>
<dd>from
<dd>attitude to execution. Anyone who has seen you in the water<br>
<br>

</dl>knows
<dl>
<dd>you
<dd>are
<dd>pathetic, anyone who had read your slop on here knows you are<br>
<br>

</dl>an
<dl>
<dd>illiterate
<dd>moron.<br>
<br>

<dd>Just as in Rodney's motor thing with Christina, had she paid<br>
<br>

</dl>Rod
<dl>
<dd>for
<dd>a
<dd>fast motor, she would have had one to start with. You are a<br>
<br>

</dl>nickel
<dl>
<dd>rocket
<dd>of massive proportions, and it shows in all you say , do , and<br>
<br>

</dl>use.
<dl>
<dd>You
<dd>caught Cobb bailing out of diving ( the right thing for anyone<br>
<br>

</dl>to
<dl>
<dd>do
<dd>who
<dd>is
<dd>subject to your perpetual risk creation) and got his prototype<br>
<br>

</dl>scooter
<dl>
<dd>cheap, so either sell it back to me or shut up. There is no<br>
<br>

</dl>way
<dl>
<dd>any of
<dd>you
<dd>would have paid for the clutch, and you would not need it if<br>
<br>

</dl>you
<dl>
<dd>were
<dd>not
<dd>so incompetent .<br>
<br>

<dd>You have an obvious reading problem. I said I bought $8,000<br>
<br>

</dl>worth
<dl>
<dd>of
<dd>Arnie
<dd>clutches that I thought I would never get rid of, since most<br>
<br>

</dl>people do
<dl>
<dd>not
<dd>need them. I still have more than I will likely be able to<br>
<br>

</dl>legitimately
<dl>
<dd>ask
<dd>anyone to buy. Scooters are my life support, and staying<br>
<br>

</dl>constantly
<dl>
<dd>hands
<dd>on
<dd>with them keeps me and
<dd>my team alive in the scooter dependent diving we do , and<br>
<br>

</dl>selling
<dl>
<dd>them
<dd>to
<dd>other groups helps finance the WKPP exploration activities. If<br>
<br>

</dl>you
<dl>
<dd>don't
<dd>like that, too bad - for people like you there is Rodney. If<br>
<br>

</dl>you
<dl>
<dd>don't
<dd>like
<dd>the clutch , complain to Mako. In addition, you moron, we do<br>
<br>

</dl>not
<dl>
<dd>use
<dd>the
<dd>wreck scooter in the WKPP in the first place, we use the PVC<br>
<br>

</dl>standard
<dl>
<dd>version.<br>
<br>

<dd>Most people buy the clutches directly form Arnie or NE Scuba.<br>
<br>

</dl>The
<dl>
<dd>only
<dd>thing that needs to be known about this is that the washers<br>
<br>

</dl>for
<dl>
<dd>the
<dd>other
<dd>clutch will not work with the Arnie , so when they get them<br>
<br>

</dl>installed
<dl>
<dd>by
<dd>me
<dd>, I use the correct washers. I am sure you are going to make<br>
<br>

</dl>this
<dl>
<dd>mistake
<dd>if you can scrape together the 100 bucks or whatever he<br>
<br>

</dl>charges
<dl>
<dd>for
<dd>them.
<dd>Maybe you could make up a cardboard sign that says. "Will
work<br>
<br>

</dl>for
<dl>
<dd>clutch"
<dd>and stand at a busy streetcorner and collect the money to buy<br>
<br>

</dl>one.
<dl>
<dd>This list for you is an effort to make yourself look like a<br>
<br>

</dl>tough
<dl>
<dd>guy,
<dd>but
<dd>all you are doing is making yourself look like one of Jerry's<br>
<br>

</dl>Kids.
<dl>
<dd>Your
<dd>constant efforts to fight with me are not going to work, no<br>
<br>

</dl>matter
<dl>
<dd>how
<dd>personal you try to get. You have proven yourself to be an<br>
<br>

</dl>incapable
<dl>
<dd>diver
<dd>with a stroke attitude who has almost nobody left willing to<br>
<br>

</dl>risk
<dl>
<dd>diving
<dd>with you and certainly nobody willing to listen to you any<br>
<br>

</dl>more.
<dl>
<dd>You
<dd>are
<dd>incapable of learning anything, and I just hope you don't kill<br>
<br>

</dl>anyone,
<dl>
<dd>even
<dd>yourself, since the assholes would claim it to be a "DIR<br>
<br>

</dl>death."
<dl>
<dd>even
<dd>though you have no clue what DIR is.<br>
